FAA Wings Saftey Program
Sorry in advance, I'm sure this has been hashed over before here BUT:
Does or when does participation in the FAA Wings program exempt me from having a BFR or whatever they call it these days? TIA Nick T |

You have to finish 3 segements and still fly with an instructor. The Wings will assign flying tasks that your instructor will be asked to validate. AFAIC, Its only real benefit is it takes some of the liability off of the instructor. Way easier to just sit around after flying with the instructor and a couple of cold beers and talk FAA speak for an hour.

TIA Nick T Wings satisfies the ground training portion. Quite likely better than 1 hour with your instructor. Still gotta do the flying. UH |
